A DESIGNED DIFFERENCE

Namasté Garden Environments is a Design/Build firm, providing concept, design, installation, and preservation throughout the greater New York/New Jersey area.

Landscape Design is the starting point for any memorable landscape. Design creates the foundation for everything that follows. Namasté Garden Environments is a Design/Build firm which means we install the landscapes that we design.

Before beginning the garden-making process, you must develop a detailed, well-crafted plan. If you develop a garden off the cuff, you’ll never coordinate all the parts. What’s more, the resulting landscape will lack the kind of imaginative vision that is what breathes life into the garden. Unlike the planting, the garden’s architecture, once in place, cannot be changed without a great deal of effort and expense. We like to make our architectural experiments on paper, not on the ground.

Founder Meeka Asayaghas been trained by Landscape Architects and holds a degree in Landscape Design from The New York Botanical Gardens. The school is acknowledged worldwide as a leader in horticultural excellence, scientific research, and educational programs..
 

LINKING HOUSE & GARDEN

Houses & gardens are inextricably linked, with the key distinction that the design of the house almost comes first. Consequently, this often results in the design of the garden being a response to that of the house. A strong design however will give the impression of the house and garden having an integral unity and of having grown up together.

The key word for a house & garden relationship is “marriage”. Key to the partnership’s style is sensitivity to the site, attention to detail and in particular, the use of generous planting. Our goal is to make house and garden parts of an inseparable whole, with the house “looking like it grew out of the garden”.
